February Teacher Background The period during and after World War I was a time of change and mobility for the United States. Dissatisfied with the severe limitations of Jim Crow laws and the poor, often isolated, living conditions in the Deep South, many African Americans moved to large northern cities, such as Baltimore, Chicago, Detroit, New York, and Washington, D.C., hoping for better job opportunities and schools. As African American populations grew, talented artists, musicians, writers, actors, and dancers came together to develop vibrant new art forms. The resulting New Negro Movement was influenced by strong African traditions, the spiritual values and gospel music of the churches, and European culture in America. The artists work examined the society in which they lived and expressed hopes for civil liberties. From these beginnings, churches, cultural centers, and the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) grew to become strong forces in social reform within the civil rights movement. New York s Harlem offered the largest concentration of African American artists. Photographers such as James Van Der Zee captured the glamorous lives of Harlem s entertainers, the richly evolving art forms, and the luxurious lifestyles. But some who came to New York found neither satisfying jobs nor good living conditions. Artists such as Romare Bearden, William Johnson, and Jacob Lawrence depicted scenes of the city that captured this side of life. Musicians, such as Bessie Smith, literally sang the blues.

4 Lesson Development 1. Motivation: Tell the students, Raise your hand if you have been on a camping trip. Discuss with the students the materials that you pack to take on a camping trip (i.e. tent, sleeping bag, and food). Ask the students, What would happen if you left your backpack with all your materials at home? Describe your experience on your camping trip without these materials. 2. Tell the students that reading is a journey and you need to be prepared for your journey just as you would for a camping trip. 3. Give students, Student Resource Sheet 1, Backpack, and Student Resource Sheet 2, Feature Strips for Backpack. 4. Instruct students to cut Text Feature Strips and put them on their backpacks for their expository reading journey. Note: Some strips are left blank for students to add their own ideas. Not all features on strips will be evident on pages Distribute student copies of Schaefer, Adam. The Harlem Renaissance. Chicago: Heinemann Library, Using the text features and backpack as a model, the teacher will guide students to unpack the article (pgs 4-5) to gain background information about the Harlem Renaissance. 6. With a partner, students will read to be informed about the Harlem Renaissance and to answer, What was the Harlem Renaissance? 7. Have students discuss their response in small groups and then debrief as a class. 8. Assessment: Individual students should respond in writing to the following prompt. Given what you know about the Harlem Renaissance, do you agree or disagree with this statement: The Harlem Renaissance was a time of a cultural awakening for African American artists. Give reasons for your position. Make sure that you address the following questions: What was the Harlem Renaissance? Why did Harlem in New York City become the center of an African American artistic, political, and social movement called the Harlem Renaissance? 9. Closure: Have students reflect and report out on the following: Why was the Harlem Renaissance important to the African American community early in the 20th century? Copyright MSDE/Reginald F. Lewis Museum of Maryland African American History and Culture 4
